Not Bad

New Year

sun on wall

music Indian echoing

alone again 

M&M’s

the last hundred years

on my computer

waiting to be understood

in the freedom of time left

to prepare for the next leg

of the journey.

I’m ready to go back to

where I came from

before I came here

to this little cute world

no more than a speck

in the universe.

It was a pretty good shot. I must say,

in time and space and the USA

after WW2…the best time and place

to be born in the history of man.

In terms of coincidence I must have 

had great karma to have met a Maha Siddha

when I was twenty two.

The path unfolded not easily but inevitably

because of my German ancestry

I never gave up, lost track of the path.

Now, like Buddha on the banks of the Ganges,

walking back and forth for seven days,

I wonder who can I tell.
